Winter 2003-Summer 2006, Ph.D. thesis
Design and implementation of Druid, a novel computer-assisted drawing program which permits easy construction of scenes of interwoven surfaces.
Advisor: Dr. Lance Williams, UNM, Comp. Sci. Dept
Summer 2003-Winter 2003, Ontology and Semantic Languages, collaboration between UNM Comp. Sci. Dept and Steve Kleban at Sandia National Labs
Background research into the field of ontology and specific languages such as DAML+OIL and OWL.
Supervisor: Dr. George Luger, UNM, Comp. Sci. Dept and Steve Kleban, Sandia National Labs
Spring 2001-Spring 2002, Autonomous Robotic Glider, collaboration between UNM Comp. Sci. Dept and Mark Boslough at Sandia National Labs
The goal of the project is to use genetic programming trees to evolve behavioral routines for autonomous robotic gliders, i.e., unpowered gliders. These gliders must find and use various forms of rising air to say aloft for extended periods of time.
Supervisor: Dr. George Luger, UNM, Comp. Sci. Dept and Mark Boslough, Sandia National Labs
Summer 1997, Auditory Neuroethology Lab, UMCP Psyc Dept
Working with bats in a soundproof room to study their abilities to echolocate blind and learn selective behaviors via positive reinforcement.
Supervisor: Dr. Cynthia Moss, UMCP, Psychology Dept

First place in the first International Online Artificial Life Creator's Contest, Cyberbotics Webots, khepera robot sim., Jul 1999.
Programming:
I have written many computer programs in the following fields (see my website for more information):
cellular automata, evolutionary simulations, robotic simulations, neural networks, genetic algorithms, emergent behavior and flocking, physics simulations, parallel distributed processing, astrophotography image capture & image processing, wavelet image processing, Fourier image & audio processing, vector drawing, realtime 3D rendering (games & virtual environments), programmable graphics cards (GPGPU)
Keith's Image Stacker has received wide acceptance in the amateur astrophotography community, as well as positive review on numerous websites and in the magazines Astronomy & Sky & Telescope.
WildSpectra is a collaborative effort with Dr. R. Haven Wiley (Biology dept, UNC-CH). WildSpectra is a real time spectrogram analyzer for the Mac and includes time-section and frequency-section analysis. WildSpectra is used in Dr. Wiley's research lab and by researchers throughout the acoustic-biology community.
